Ripley - get out / stop signs

When the deep space towing vessel Nostromo receives a mysterious signal from an unexplored planet, the seven crew members are awakened from hypersleep to investigate. Three of them—Captain Dallas ( Tom Skerritt ), Executive Officer Kane ( John Hurt ), and Navigator Lambert ( Veronica Cartwright )—form an exploration team and locate a derelict spaceship that contains a huge cavern full of eggs, while the other four crew members—Warrant Officer Ripley ( Sigourney Weaver ), Science Officer Ash ( Ian Holm ), Chief Engineer Parker ( Yaphet Kotto ), and engineering technician Brett ( Harry Dean Stanton )—remain behind to decipher the nature of the distress signal and to make repairs to the Nostromo. Trouble begins when one of the eggs hatches and a spider-like creature attaches itself to Kane's face.
